She is now in a coma in the Kona hospital, her family have joined her. She has had many bouts with cancer as well. How many boosters has she had? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the hospitaliztions and death count should continue being reported, because at least there's some degree of accuracy to those. Just my shiny nickel, since 2 cents gets rounded down to zero. Still pretty shitty that there's an average of 2-3 dozen deaths per week this past month as a result of this pandemic. I suspect that figure might trend upwards over the course of this winter now that we're moving activities indoors and because people don't seem to appreciate the importance of proper masking and distancing. Estimates and numbers indicate it's overwhelmingly those who are either unvaccinated or immunocompromised making up the majority of fatalities.

The hospital isn't doing shots and Shoppers was the only option. They are booked thru November. Called Shoppers and they said to do a 'walk in' and they would try and get us done. Last year the hospital had lineups outside the building with 5 stations inside doing shots. What the hey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
